Hi,

I'd like to buy T61 but I found it has Wifi b/g.
What would I have to do to upgrade the wifi card?
I have few spare Intel 5100.
Just swaping cards will be fine or would have to do few other tasks?
Thanx for your future answer

Rgds,
Robert

Is the Intel card an IBM FRU? Is if half height or full height?

Hi Harry,

It's a half height - taken from Sony Vaio TT

You'll need a bracket and a modified BIOS.
